What is that tool called? I take it we need to destroy the rivets in order to remove the chin spoiler? Assuming rivet destruction is necessary and the only way to remove the chin, won't that leave tiny fragments of rivet inside the front bumper rolling around?

Right now, I'm just thinking of grinding or sanding off an inch from the chin spoiler. Although, that may end up destroying the chin anyway.
